Coming from a mostly Chinese background, I have always asked the Taoist priests "what if someone dies and there's no one to help them cross the divide into heaven, then what happens?", like if the person doesn't have caring relatives to engage the priests or if the family is too poor to do so.

I think that all of the other "requirements" are an outflow from #2 so, hence, #2 is the only real requirement :) #7 drove Luther so crazy that he changed his RC theology!

Others may die before they get the chance. I'm not saying we aren't supposed to do it, I'm just saying it's not required for salvation. Well, there are some people who cannot physically be baptized.

We are after all saved by a faith that works. Just saying you believe makes you no better than the demons (James). You are such a stirrer, Casey! :-D
